Weekend events that don't involve a midway [Family and parenting]

Because deep-frying things you don't eat anyway is a bad idea and may lead to slow dancing to cover-bands under giant tents, guzzling draft beer, excessive sweating, cardiac arrest, and flatulence.

Yes, the Fair is in town. Don't get me wrong, I've been known to slam draft beers and ingest giant sausages, then sweat profusely while chicken-dancing under a giant tent on the midway with the best of them, but there is something about the allure that of the KY State Fair that just doesn't do it for me anymore. Maybe the parking, maybe the crowds, maybe the overdose of ugly--tomatoes, lamps (dare I say, humanoids), but the Fair is the last place I want to spend my weekend.

St. Anthony School Kinderderby [Kentucky Derby]

Derby season isn't just for horse races. There are plenty of other races to watch, even with the flooded-out Great Steamboat Race rescheduled to June. Rodents, wait staffs with wine and beds with wheels, all have their day, even schoolchildren galloping through parking lots throughout the mythic region known as Kentuckiana.

Great Escape Theaters in Clarksville and New Albany releases free summer movie schedule [Family and parenting]

Who's looking for something to do this summer? Here's a freebie.

If you're like me you try to find inexpensive, or better yet, free things to do with your kid.  The Great Escape Theatres in New Albany and Clarksville, Indiana are once again offering the free kids' summer movies!  The free showings begin on June 6th and run thru August 11th.  All shows start at 9:30am.  I recommend you get there early because they are free and generally draw large crowds.
